Overview

This PR validates that Clipboard and DataObject support specialized data retrieval features, particularly for working with raw data and NRBF serialized content. It adds comprehensive tests to document existing behavior.

Key scenarios validated:

  • Raw Data Access: Retrieving the raw MemoryStream data from the clipboard using TryGetData<MemoryStream>()
  • NRBF Data Access: Decoding clipboard data to SerializationRecord using TryGetData<SerializationRecord>()
  • JSON Serialization: Proper handling of JSON-serialized data in both in-process and out-of-process scenarios

Implementation Details

The existing implementation in BinaryFormatUtilities.TryReadObjectFromStream<T> already supports these scenarios:

// Raw data access
if (typeof(T) == typeof(MemoryStream))
{
    // Explicitly asked for a MemoryStream, return the stream as is.
    @object = (T)(object)stream;
    return true;
}

// NRBF serialized data access
record = stream.DecodeNrbf();
if (typeof(T) == typeof(SerializationRecord))
{
    // If SerializationRecord was explicitly requested, return the decoded stream.
    @object = (T)(object)record;
    return true;
}

The added tests ensure:

  1. TryGetData<MemoryStream> always returns the raw HGLOBAL data stream
  2. TryGetData<SerializationRecord> properly decodes NRBF-formatted data
  3. JSON serialized data works correctly in all API scenarios
  4. Tests cover both in-process and out-of-process (copy=true/false) cases

Fixes #12919.

Do not modify build.cmd and undo adding dotnet-install.sh.

I've reverted the changes to build.cmd and removed the dotnet-install.sh file in commit 7a33eec. The global.json has also been restored to its original state.

Code should not have trailing white space.

Removed the trailing whitespace from all test files in commit 4953226.
